[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]God what a stupid post.  OP’s kid allegedly goes to one of the top private schools in the country, it’s apparently not in the DMV, it presumably costs a lot of money and has an established track record - yet OP comes here, to this anonymous forum of (with all due respect) no-nothings and asked where her kid could get into college?

Nuts.   [/quote]

General observation: the expensive private schools have some of the best college counseling and people come to these forums when they don’t like what they’re told.

Listen to the counselors you pay tens of thousands of dollars for. [/quote]

FWIW, I have a kid at a top private nyc school and they don't do a lot of personalized college counseling til beginning of senior year. There's one kid and counselor meeting to get acquainted. And they do do wonderful group work in class: how to make a list, how to research schools, even writing the personal essay. But the mom and dad and kid meeting one on one with counselor is September of senior year.  so this is likely why OP hasn't met with anyone yet - not that she's ignoring advice.
